Akira Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 (edited) Listening to Talksport, Simon Jordan just admitted to throwing a cup of coffee at Steve Lansdown and called him a cheat, presumably because of the ghost goal. Not sure if this was common knowledge, but first I'd heard of this. Wonder what Steve's reaction was! Edit - turns out it wasn't because of the ghost goal, was us getting a corner in last min which we scored from but shouldn't of had the corner. Not the crime of the century in footballing terms.

Akira Posted December 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 Yeah I think it was this game (well remembered by the way!) https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/football-league/bristol-city-1-crystal-palace-1-warnock-left-to-fume-as-mccombe-s-late-equaliser-denies-palace-784102.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamC Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 What a class act he is. I mean it’s obvious that our chairman (who has absolutely nothing to do with what goes on during a game) is clearly responsible for the officials making a mistake, isn’t he? You can hardly imagine SL then giving it the sort of celebration Nuno (****) did to AD, can you? Self publicist tosser. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red-Robbo Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 I wish the orange-faced **** would get over his obsession with us and come to terms that he was the not very successful chairman of a boring club from the armpit of Surrey who at their peak are destined only to be the 5th ranked side from Greater London. As a businessman he managed to lose the vast majority of his money and now ekes a living summing up everything that is wrong with Talksport. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2015 Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 He's actually a very good pundit on TalkSport before any of you get on your high horses, and yes I despised him when he was Crystal Palace chairman. He has matured a little. 13 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazooka Joe Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 Poor bloke said he feared for his life when once confronted by an angry mob of City fans, who I believe he described as "crazy". Luckily for him, there were enough Police and security staff to smuggle him away safely. I hope Lansdown at least threw a punch prawn sandwich back at him 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to think that the fact that SL is considerably richer than he is will also keep him awake at night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if that’s not true, I’m sure the palace firm would have stepped in and saved him 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They bounce around in front of each other shouting “come on” but can never quite breakthrough the invisible force field that seems to appear between them.

I think he definitely was but he’s in his 50s now and matured a great deal since then having made and then lost millions. He’s far less impulsive these days and he does actually talk some real sense on TalkSport He and Jim White bounce off each really well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While he is paid to be provocative, I think some of his comments hit the bail on the head. Particularly with regard to Football finances, and the workings of the majority of footballers contracts. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AppyDAZE Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 (edited) He comes over really well on TS. Far better than the blinkered, footballers can do no wrong Mr. Keown and many others. You have to rememeber a lot of what he says is tongue in cheek and deliberately provocative. Since he's been on the radio, I like him. Funny that he got so wound up at The Gate though.
